Hi,
We would like to have a new action type to validate user input in a custom action. So, for instance, let's say I put a numeric value in the custom action form and I want it to be between 1 and 10. Right now there's no easy way of validating that the value is right, I would have to:
As you can imagine, when you have to validate more than one field, you have a complete mess in the structure of the custom action. And if you want to invoke another custom action via URL at the end, this workaround is not even possible.
This could be solved very easily with an new action/step that, having a True/False expression similar to the ones in the Validation Rules, fails the custom action and stops the execution if needed. It could show a red message in the custom action form, same as you the one you have when a validation rule or any other thing fails during the execution of a custom action. That way the user can correct the input data and run again.
Regards.

HI Boris,
I know I'm a bit late to the party, but has this Change Request been deployed ? I could use it right now !
Thanks,

Hi Amir,
This has not been implemented yet AFAIK.
Regards.
I fully support this request. Validation at input time is critical.
you have my vote as well
Hi Jason and Ariel,
We have added you to the feature request list.
Any update on this feature request? From what I've seen, CAs can only use variables for output change rather than create validation rules around input data.
Also, can at any point formula based custom fields be updated in a CA? No, correct?
Has this been rolled out? We would love to be able to validate input on a custom action form.
